Two Unique Safari Lodges at the Edge of Kruger – Privacy, Nature & Comfort Welcome to Villa Yingwe and Villa Mangwa – two private lodges on a peaceful estate bordering the Kruger National Park. Both homes offer a private jacuzzi, outdoor fireplace, braai (BBQ), and a terrace overlooking a waterhole where elephants, impalas, and other wildlife often come to drink. It’s an authentic bush experience – from the comfort of your own veranda. Comfortable and Well-Equipped Each lodge is built in traditional African style and designed with comfort in mind. You’ll have: Air conditioning in all bedrooms and the living area 2 or 3 bedrooms, each with en-suite bathrooms A fully equipped kitchen with fridge-freezer, microwave, coffee machine, kettle, and stove Smart TV, fast free WiFi, and a shaded carport Power – Even During Load Shedding Thanks to solar panels and a backup battery, there is always electricity – even during power outages. Everything stays on except for the stove and air conditioning, so your stay remains comfortable. Estate Facilities The estate offers a shared swimming pool and tennis court, and is uniquely situated along the Kruger fence line, with endless views over untouched wilderness.

We are a Dutch family and have owned this special place since 2014. When we’re not in South Africa ourselves, we rent out our homes to fellow nature lovers. We enjoy traveling, wildlife photography, birdwatching, and spending time in the bush. We hope you’ll enjoy this place just as much as we do every time we return.

The town of Phalaborwa is just a short drive away and offers shops, restaurants, horseback riding, a golf course, and safari operators. We’re happy to help you book local activities, such as: Private or shared safaris in Kruger Park A bush braai (dinner and night drive in the park) Boat safaris on the river The scenic Panorama Route Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre Ziplining and waterfalls in Magoebaskloof The Amarula Lapa Museum Guided township visits or volunteer projects Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or experience South African culture – this is the perfect base for your adventure.
